Seaside Style

The Quintessence of Martha's Vineyard Style

Designed by Boston-based Elizabeth Swartz Interiors, this renovated Tashmoo Cottage on Martha’s Vineyard is highlighted by a light and bright island-inspired color palette of breezy blues, greens, grays and whites. The home features custom built-ins and cabinetry designed to maximize storage, painted a refreshing blue in the kitchen and a soft white in other areas. A large stone fireplace surround and wood stove add warmth and charm to the first floor open floor plan. The interior décor is lightly sprinkled with seaside accessories such as nautical lighting, beadboard paneling, and hydrangeas and beach-themed throw pillows. The article quotes Elizabeth, “[We wanted] to create an atmosphere that was refreshing, calming and comfortable.”
